Fixes in 2.00
-------------
This is an exhaustive list of all changes made since the 2.00 GAMMA release.
* Fixed the runtime error when downloading file attaches
with an external protocol.
* Added a RIP indicator to EXITINFO.BBS and the status
bar while a user is online.
* Fixed the description formatting code to display FILE_ID.DIZ
descriptions correctly.
* The "dupe check" file area option was not working correctly.
Fixed.
* Fixed a bug in the upload credit time calculation.
* Fixed a bug relating to file groups in RAFILE's command-line
parser.
* FSC-0035 support would not work if the REPLYTO kludge contained
a domain name. Fixed.
* Fixed a severe bug in the upload scan after logoff.
* RAUSER now searches for CONFIG.RA in a manner more consistent
with the other external utilities.
* Added RIP support. If the "Detect ANSI" option is enabled in
RACONFIG, RA will also auto-detect RIP at the users end.
If detected, RA will display .RIP files from the textfile
directory in preference to the regular .A?? files.
* Fixed a bug which would cause the HMB message numbers to
reset to 1 under certain circumstances.
* Fixed a small glitch in the generation of the FILE_ID file.

to be rebuilt incorrectly.

specific command.

codes.

* Fixed a bug in the "TimeCost" menu option field.
* Fixed the problem which would cause a filelist to screw up
after viewing a file.
* Fixed the runtime error 200 when viewing a file created
with ARJ 2.39d. Unfortunately I can't figure out what exactly
is wrong with these archives, so viewing them is still a
problem.
* RA was using only the first 75 characters of the optional
data field. Fixed.
* Quitting from editing a file description in RA would screw
up the description text. Fixed.

netmail in the new mail scan.
* Fixed the infamous upload dupe detection bug.

* RAMGR would report "unable to erase file" if skip was selected
during a MOVE operation. Fixed.

a netmail message to any destination which had the same node
number as the net it was in, eg. 209/209.
* When selecting an area to MOVE a file to in RAMGR, it was not
possible to use the "0" key. Fixed.

from ALT-G.

be updated during a mailbox scan.

combined areas menu command.
* A local upload of a file in BADFILES.CTL would display garbage
on the screen. Fixed.

was extremely slow. Fixed.
